Definitions
- the present invention relates to a packaging method for shell-structured egg-shaped chocolate food products. KNOWN STATE OF THE ART
- Aluminum foils are used for packaging hollow chocolates in various forms, particularly in egg form.
- the chocolate is formed inside the aluminum foil or it is molded by means of placement inside a half-shell and a node is formed at the edges thereof.
- the patent publication GB952925 relates to a method for producing foil-coated confectionery articles by casting, two metal foil shells are first made by pressing between die members, molten confectionery is introduced into one shell and both are placed together, and shaking or spinning distributes material round the inside of the shells. The adjacent margin of the two shells may be joined together after the confectionery has cooled.
- the metal foil is guided into a die set, cupping the foil and a cutter die co-operating with a support to trim it.
- the casing is illustrated having a sheath section formed with another sheath section along the connection line.
- the film material of the casing has a covering layer with thermoplastic coated metal foil.
- the sheath section has a gas-proof inner section for receiving the product.
- the object of the present invention is to provide easy alignment of the product by means of a package in case figurative items are added on the products provided in thin-walled chocolate egg structure.
- the present invention is a packaging method for an egg-formed hollow chocolate food product which encircles a capsule wherein a product is kept.
- the capsule is cylindrical and the product is movable in the capsule.
- the figurative element engaging to the auxiliary cavity prevents the removal of the egg from the place thereof as a result of vibration where the egg sits in a predetermined manner with weight and/or pre-speed inside the main cavity.
- a shape coupling is formed between the figurative element and the auxiliary cavity. This becomes possible by means of the mutual recesses and protrusions between the figurative element and the auxiliary cavity.
- the process step of cutting the foil element with the outer periphery of the egg in a distanced manner so as to form a flange is provided.
- the flange forms a connection section for closing the rear section of the foil element.
- the auxiliary cavity is aligned with the main cavity within a figurative area border defined by the projection of the capsule. By means of this, the capsule guides the chocolate egg towards the auxiliary cavity with the gravity center.
- the auxiliary cavity is formed with an area which is 5-50% of the surface area of the main cavity.
- the foil deformation is kept delimited, and the foil preserves its rigidity.
- the process step of forming a main cavity to the rear foil element in order to close the package and joining the foil element and the rear foil element is provided.
- the preferred embodiment of the present invention is a foil element for a packaging method.
- the foil element comprises a thermoplastic layered aluminum foil.
- the foil element and the rear foil element are joined by means of thermal joining method.
- the present invention is an egg-shaped chocolate food product produced by means of the abovementioned packaging method.
- the auxiliary cavity comprises circular protrusions.
- the product named as egg-shaped chocolate food product, is obtained by means of molding of the hollow thin-walled chocolate in egg form. At the same time, it encapsulates a capsule wherein for instance a toy is provided.
- Figure 1 a the top view of a piece cut from an aluminum foil in order to form half of the package for egg-formed hollow chocolate is given.
- Figure 1 b the top view where main cavity and auxiliary cavity are formed after first shaping of the aluminum foil illustrated in Figure 1 a is given.
- FIG 1 a the top view of an aluminum foil element (10) whereon a thermoplastic layer is provided is given.
- the aluminum foil element (10), cut from a roll (not illustrated in the figures), is dimensioned in a manner having a surface area so as to be partially greater than the outer peripheral area of the food product which is in egg (30) form made of thin-walled hollow chocolate.
- Figure 1 b the top view of a main cavity (12) formed on the foil element (10) and an auxiliary cavity (14) formed on the main cavity (12) is given.
- the main cavity (12) is a recess which is in cut egg form which is longitudinally cut in half.
- the auxiliary cavity (14) is in the form of two combined annular elements formed towards the intermediate and upper section of the main cavity (12) and it is in the form of one each circles in the middle.
- a cutting line (18) is illustrated which encircles the outer periphery of the main cavity (12) in a distanced manner.
- the periphery of the main cavity (12) is cut in a manner obtaining a flange (16) by means of a cutting die (not illustrated in the figures).
- a cutting die not illustrated in the figures.
- FIG 2 the lateral cross sectional view of a die (40) shaping the foil element (10) is given.
- a die (40) shaping the foil element (10) is given.
- the core (46) enters/exits the die (40), and it shapes the foil element (10) placed on the die (40).
- each foil element (10) shaped on the die (40) having two main cavities (12) is illustrated.
- Each foil element (10) has a main cavity (12) as the core (46) pushes towards and tightens the main recess (42).
- a protrusion (48), provided on the core (46) pushes the main cavity (12) towards a recess (44) corresponding on the die (40), and it provides formation of the auxiliary cavity (14) on the foil element (10).
- a robot arm (50) carries the egg (30) at the end section thereof.
- the egg (30) In case the egg (30) is misaligned on the die (40) or in case of axial run-out of the figurative element (32) with respect to the auxiliary cavity (14) on the main cavity (12) of the foil element (10) sitting to the main recess (42) provided on the die (40) as a result of free fall, the egg (30) slides in a sliding direction (m) on the main cavity (12), and thereby the auxiliary cavity (14) is coupled to the figurative element (32).
- Axial run- out is the case where a distance exists between an egg vertical axis (y') which passes through the middle of the figurative element (32) and a die vertical axis (y) which passes through the auxiliary cavity (14).
- the egg (30) can be fallen onto the die (40) while the egg (30) is carried by means of the conveyor through another production line instead of the robot arm (50). Moreover, it is also possible that an operator manually aligns the eggs (30) inside the die.
